I stumbled on this but it somehow feels like it was just what I was looking for.

thank you so much for finding and sharing this

This looks like something Jack Stauber would make!

is there a way to license this footage for a music video?

Weirdly wonderful!

Please put the song: A Star is born, Cam'ron... to this video

Most cars are from 1960s. VW bugs, American coupes and sedans. One or two cars date from 1950s. At 17-19 seconds in, appears to be the body shape of either a 1969 or 1970 Chevelle or Buick Skylark, recognizable to my husband, who owned a 1970 Skylark. Could also be a 1969. Strained to identify anything later than 1970. Could not. Anyone else see anything later? Clothing and hair styles seem right for 1970.

waow.

1899

Ommmmggggggg💖💖💖💖💖this is enlightenment!!!!!!!

So cute! Hahaha

That's the product Trump uses daily.

Sorry I just caught up with this Willie. Well what can I say other than Far Out! Usually I don't dig animations ever since Fritz the Cay! ;-) BTW did you ever read "BUT BEAUTIFUL" by Geoff Dyer? There is some interesting fact, fiction or simply mere conjecture about Monk, Nica etc etc. It's a paperback & a fast interesting humorous read. Thanks ,CIAO Man.

Just here to say this was amazing. it's still amazing.

"Turns your skin a funny orange color indoors in just 3 to 5 hours!"

Absolutely fantastic !

Beautiful !!! It seems so quiet, and there is so little traffic... time has changed :)

And here is the animated film Harry Smith made using the original version of Monk's Misterioso (1948) When two geniuses are involved in one project chances are the result is going to be something very special. The sound track to this film is one of the most magnificent pieces of American music--in any genre. But it's jazz and its composer is Thelonious Monk. Originally issued on Blue Note Records, the personnel is Monk piano Milt Jackson vibes John Simmons bass and Shadow Wilson drums. Jackson is one of the greatest interpreters of Monk's music, as you can hear. Yes, it's the same Harry Smith who was the author of the highly influential Anthology of American Folk Music, originally a six album set issued by Folkways Records. Many very famous musicians took up music after hearing these albums. They were a collection of 78 rpm records from Smith's personal collection transferred to 33 rpm vinyl. Smith was a musicologist, filmmaker, painter, author and all around amazing man. . No. 11 Mirror Animation, from 1956-57 on 16mm color film, is all hand made by Smith himself, as were all his animations .When you imagine the amount of work involved here, it's really mind blowing. Smith had the highest regard for Monk's music and the feeling was mutual. Monk called Harry "the magician"

Does anyone know what year this was made, and who the filmmaker is? I'm guessing it was the late 1950's/early 1960's based on clothing

So this was before psychedelics really hit western culture, huh? That kinda blows my mind, the kaleidoscopic effects are just like visuals I'll get on weaker doses of Ayahuasca. Great stuff, thanks for posting. OH WOW, the same Harry Smith that compiled the famous folk music collection.

Is Harry Smith a SATANIST?

love old school animations

Yeah, I did what research I could about 20 years ago and it seemed there was an established “Harry Smith Studio” in NYC or environs in the late ’40s. I am pretty sure (from talking to Jordan Belson) that Harry was living above the Jackson’s Nook club in the Fillmore in S.F. at that time. As far as I know, he did not get to NYC before 1952 (I think he traveled from the West Coast with Philip Lamantia). But it is possible he visited once or twice before that.

I believe you are probably right. I just went through a long discussion on this subject with another person who shared your viewpoint. Since I don't think I can send the link, if you KZfaq Thelonious Monk Misterioso you can see our correspondence. It's the black and white picture with Monk sitting at a piano. Thanks for your input.

I believe the session engineer was a different person named Harry Smith, but I would be glad to learn otherwise! (Harry was in San Francisco in ’47, I believe this was recorded in the NYC area.)

wow harlem has changed so much alot of this neighborhoods don't even look like that anymore

thats Lincoln house on madison and 132nd 0:59, its still kind of looks the same over there

So great!

That was when the 8th Street Movie Theater was still operating and The Stag shop was selling Mod clothes.

just discovered all about Harry Smith from the excellent liner notes to Anthology of American Folk Music volume IV.Feel like I've discovered an old friend.

Yeesh. Lil dark for my taste. Especially the Baphomet there at the end.

I am a former AFA employee in the Film Program and it was a great honor to get to know Harry Smith personally AND professionally. Greetings from France.

did harry smith make the audio to this also?

wow. love this. thanx....I notice in comments a reference to FREEDOMLAND- I went there when i was about 3-4 yrs old !....steph

I agree- judging by the cars, cameras, fashion and hairstyles- 1973 tops.

Wonderful

@zensolo It was a amusement park which was opened only for a short period of time. It was in the Northern Bronx. My sister went there once, can't remember why but I didn't.

Great film. Based on the clothes people wore and the stores I'd put this around 1973.

Must be early 1970's. There's Dwight Schrute at the 38 second mark. Fantastic film.

@butohbaby Yeah, I see your point. I'm just reacting from the P.O.V. of a guy fresh out of college who didn't see downtown New York, and East Village, until the late 1970s. Compared to today, Astor Place in 1978 looked pretty much the same as in this movie. Sure, cool stuff was already percolating behind the storefronts, but it was all invisible to me at that time. I wish I knew, back then!

Thank you Lisanne78RPM & catfan for narrowing it down and also for sharing the clues; things for me to look out for - appreciate it.
